• The Host: A Novel by Stephenie Meyer

  Rating: 4.5

  The Host: A Novel
  Author: Stephenie Meyer
  Reader: Kate Reading

  Short Review: Meyer’s first foray into sci-fi is very satisfying. Officially an adult novel (in contrast with the young adult label applied to the Twilight series) The Host explores a post-invasion world from the perspective of one of the invaders. It is well written, well read and is still haunting me weeks after I finished listening.
